Figure 5

Microtubule attachment to kinetochores in microinjected cells. CFPAC-1 cells that were uninjected (A) or microinjected with antibodies to both NuMA and HSET (B) were processed for transmission electron microscopy. Arrows in A and B point to centrosomes. The electron-dense material detected in B near the centrosomes is most likely the antibody-induced aggregates of NuMA and HSET, which are prominently detected by immunofluorescence microscopy. (C) High magnification views to highlight kinetochore-microtubule interactions in the chromosomes identified as 1–4 in B. The kinetochore regions of chromosome 2 were located in the adjacent serial section from that shown in B. Bars: (A and B) 3 μm; (C) 100 nm.
